the demise of one of the close members of the family.

not going to celebrate … there have been certain ill moments in the year and
they still continue .. when there is mourning in the family festivals are put
away, traditionally .. and so… Each year we hope that there is joy and
happiness around .. and I do hope this year is one such ..," the
71-year-old actor said.

He also posted, "We do not celebrate it again … there have been
discomforting news for the year, the passing away of relations distant, of long
months of struggle against illness .. it would be disrespectful to be immersed
in the colours of abandon and joy when some among us mourn .."

due to the loss of his close friend and former CEO of his production house Red
Chilli Entertainment Bobby Chawla.
